The main concern is the traffic, how bad is it there? The company says it is possible to skip the busier sections in the support bus but our previous experience of touring is on dedicated paths, mostly, and the worry is that it will be stressful with kids if the motorists are hooning by.

Would be good to hear from people who know those roads and the traffic, especially in the second half of January.

Also, let us know if you want to join, the group can be up to 12 and the kids would love the extra company, especially of other kids.

The bit through from Lonnie to Scotsdale would be scary... the rest OK mostly. But hilly as hell up and over the Sideling, reckon the kids would be in the bus a bit. Mostly it'll be hot on the east coast. You won't need to pack for cold weather(snow) like the rest of the state.
